Lateral close mounting, n: Number of units mounted Caution: If lateral close mounting is used for the controller, IP66 (Dust-proof/Drip-proof) 0.5 may be compromized, and all warranties will 45 0 (Fig. 2.3-1) be invalidated. 2.4 Mounting and removal to/from the control panel How to mount the ACS-13A (Fig. 2.4-1, Fig. 2.4-2) Mount the controller vertically to the flat, rigid panel to ensure it adheres to the Dust-proof/Drip-proof specification (IP66). Mountable panel thickness: Within 1 to 5mm (1) Insert the controller from the front side of the panel. (2) Insert the mounting frame until the frame comes into contact with the panel, and fasten with screws. Tighten screws with one rotation upon the screw tips touching the panel. Torque: 0.05 to 0.06Nm How to remove the mounting frame (Fig. 2.4-3) (1) Turn the power to the unit OFF, and disconnect all wires before removing the mounting frame. (2) Insert a flat blade screwdriver between the screw frame and unit 1 . (3) Slowly push the frame upward using the screwdriver 2 , while pushing the unit toward the panel 3 . (4) Repeat step (2) and slowly push the frame downward using the screwdriver for the other side. The frame can be removed little by little by repeating these steps.

Wiring of Heater burnout alarm (W, W3 option) This alarm is not usable for detecting heater current under phase control. Use the current transformer (CT) provided, and pass one lead wire of the heater circuit into the hole of the CT. (Fig.3-3) When wiring, keep the CT wire away from AC sources or load wires to avoid the external interference. In the case of 3-phase (W3 option), pass any 2 lead wires of R, S, T into the CT, and connect them with CT1 (13, 14) and CT2 (14, 15) terminals.

3. Wiring Warning Caution

Turn the power supply to the instrument off before wiring or checking it. Working or touching the terminal with the power switched on may result in severe injury or death due to Electric Shock.

After the unit is mounted to the control panel and wiring is completed, operate the unit following the procedures. (1) Turn the power supply to the ACS-13A ON. (2) Setup Set up the unit. Refer to 5. Operation flowchart and 6. Basic setting. Select an input type, alarm type, Direct/Reverse action, etc. during Setup mode. If setup is not required, skip this step, and proceed to step (3).

The terminal block of this instrument is designed to be wired from the left side. The lead wire must be inserted from the left side of the terminal, and fastened by the terminal screw. The torque is approximately 0.6Nm to 1.0Nm. When using a terminal cover, pass terminal wires numbered 7 to 12 into the holes of the terminal cover. See (Fig. 3-2). This controller does not have a built-in power switch, circuit breaker or fuse. Therefore, it is necessary to install them in the circuit near the external controller. (Recommended fuse: Time-lag fuse, rated voltage 250V AC, rated current 2A) For a 24V AC/DC power source, do not confuse polarity when using direct current (DC). Use a thermocouple and compensating lead wire in accordance with the sensor input specification of this controller. Use the 3-wire RTD which corresponds to the input specification of this controller. (+) side Input terminal number of 0 to 5V DC, 1 to 5V DC, 0 to 10V DC differs from that of 0 to 1V DC. When using a relay contact output type, externally use a relay according to the capacity of the load to protect the built-in relay contact. When wiring, keep input wires (thermocouple, RTD, etc.) away from AC sources or load wires to avoid external interference.
Lead wire solderless terminal When using a Terminal cover Use a solderless terminal with an insulation sleeve in which an M3 screw fits as shown below. The torque is approximately 0.6Nm to 1.0Nm.
